Getting there
Somewhat walkable
Places to stay are graded on a 0-100 scale. The higher the grade, the easier it is for travelers to find restaurants and things to do within walking distance.
The proposal of the Inn foot on the sand, is great for disconnecting from the city. It's my type of tourism, total immersion in nature. It was great family days. Heaven.
Points to improve: air conditioning in all bungalows, improving the quality of Wi-Fi in the bungalows and common areas, having the option of fast snacks and pizzas for dinner, enlarging the menu with varied portions for lunch, without having to go out to eat outside the Inn and sun lounge / chair on the beach, comfort to guests.

Wonderful stay, from the reception on arrival to the Pousada, impeccable chalet, cleaning, beds, breakfast, restaurant, finally a pleasant surprise in Atins. A special mention to Celso and Fernando that make the difference. For those looking for unforgettable moments alongside a lush nature and reconnection with what really matters, do not miss coming to Atins and staying in the Pousada Vila Guará.

It is difficult to rate this Pension whose bunks are charming, and beautifully decorated. The Inn team is also very nice. Breakfast is by far the worst of our trip but do not hesitate to ask for things because in fact you will surely find what you want. No dinner possible on site. (you can go to Villa pantai nice restaurant close to the Pension inland) The Pension is by the sea and that is very good because it is difficult to move in the sand. Then you have to pay for a buggy. The problem in Atins but the Pension can not help it is the noise, the music on the beach everywhere and in the boats that dock. The music can last until 4am: an open-air nightclub so don’t forget its quies balls is the solution and the reception needs it so much. A nice terrace facing the sea with deckchair. No umbrella or towel. No pool too bad because the ocean does not make you want. But this village is mostly a kite village. Anyway nice but no more than 2 nights.

The proposal of the hostel should be clearer. It is for those who really like nature and little comfort. The rooms are open, with mosquito and no air conditioning. The heat is hellish during the night and the natural ventilation does not make sense, besides being accompanied by many insects and frogs. Bathroom and toilet open as well. Towels are not changed. The hotel’s restaurant only works until 4 p.m. Nearby, there is a ballad that sounds until dawn and interferes with sleep, already disturbed by heat and insects. The only positive point is the kindness and attention of the staff.

We spent 5 days in Atins in August 2017 with our 3 kids at the beginning in another pousada then in vila guara and we were so glad to do so. Vila guara Location is the best for both kiting (all kiters starting from there) and going out to other small restaurants. The scenery and beach are beautiful as well as the brand new accomodation. We even had a special dribks and diner with all other guests for our last night. Last, kite school is very convenient and friendly...

Rooms are in open air with no AC. Hotel advertises having wifi but its only in common areas, not in the chalets. We had a frog living in our toilet, and rooms have open holes on the wooden floors, and ceilings where bugs and reptiles crawl in such as: biting ants, spiders, many mosquitoes, lizards, frogs. I left the property with many bites all over my body, body aches, chills, headache, nausea, (dengue fever from mosquitoes). The biggest major hospital is 5 hours away. The hotel very pricey for what it is. The pictures look charming online but this place is a tourist trap.

Best place on earth ! The site is breath taking. It provides for an amazing beach, top kiteboarding and super quick access to the Lancois. The staff was great, helpful to the little ones and older ones. Watch the Nutella pancakes in the morning and the cocktails at sunset. A long but fun trip for Rio but a treasure in itself.

We stayed 3 days with another family at Vila Guara and everything was perfect from beginning to the end. Located right on the beach, 1h from Lençois and on a very nice kite surf spot, the posada is the better place to serve as a base to visit Lençois as well as starting/improving your kite-surf. In terms of service, restaurant was very good with an amazing view on the sea. in terms of housing, the wooden bungalows are very nice and well arranged. For us, it was 3 days like in paradise.
